In our October show, we were thrilled to welcome Max Hurtaud, our very own Monsieur Botanique, who recently placed third in the Belgian Championship!
Just a week before our online show, the Belgian Championships took place during Feerie Florale at Alden Biesen, where Max wowed everyone with his incredible designs. During the show, he shared his experience from the championship and showcased his remarkable work.
For our regular viewers, Max’s talent is no surprise; they’ve seen his stunning creations before, and he brought even more amazing designs this time!
Max kicked things off with a beautiful table arrangement featuring the Oshun Pouch. The base was crafted from dandelions and paired with Cymbidiums, making it a true standout.
He then continued the show, hosted by Morgan Douglas Nuth (since John Elstgeest was traveling), with a gorgeous autumn hand-tied bouquet. The color palette was really striking!
Next, Max presented a creative wreath made with small terracotta pots, offering a fresh twist perfect for Thanksgiving. He used Lisianthus, Gerberas, and various berries for this design.
Following that was a unique wooden base decorated with dried fruits and Helichrysum. He incorporated spray roses, Lisianthus, and Cymbidium, creating a visually interesting color combination that was topped off beautifully by the Cymbidiums.
Max also elevated a table design using bottles. By adding extra holes in the bottles, he crafted something special with Cymbidiums, mini Cymbidiums, and Anthuriums. Be sure to check out how he directed the Anthuriums just the way he wanted!
The grand finale was a hand-tied frame bouquet, recreating Max’s Belgian Cup design. It was a modern yet classy creation, making it the perfect way to wrap up the show!
